Now that I took 20 whole minutes to put together a logo, I can officially announce the creation of Rider's Block Productions, Inc.I tossed a few text messages back and forth with Dean Xene this morning, and we have the makings of a mid-season replacement show for Kath & Kim, which will be canceled by NBC brass 13 minutes into its first episode on October 9.
Our first production will be a sitcom featuring M. Emmet Walsh as a washed-up male prostitute who mentors his young gigolo roommate played by Jason Mewes. The working title is Flaccid Heights.
Each episode opens with Walsh preparing to bed a different elderly client, but--and here's the hook--he always fails to achieve an erection! Celebrity guests slated to appear as clients: Bea Arthur, Rue McClanahan, Cloris Leachman, and Kim Cattrall. Walsh will then deliver his trademark catchphrase: "Jay, get me my Viagra!"
If he agrees to the in-joke, Mewes will enter the room with a rubber tube tied around one bicep and call Walsh a different name each week. Example: "Get it yourself, you tubby bitch!" Cue the laugh track, roll the titles featuring Walsh and Mewes dancing together like the Cosby family to "Start the Commotion" by The Wiseguys.
Jason Mewes will play himself, but I'm soliciting names for Walsh's character in the comments.

Cloris Leachman may have booking conflict, seeing as how she is on Dancing with the stars starting next week. And I have money on her to WIN IT ALL!
I'm not even kidding, I would totally watch this! Even if just for that "Sit Ubu sit" moment at the end with the fat guy.
How about Stan "Lover Man" Cranston?
I say his character name should be Jon Norris.
Slinger: I don't know what you're talking about. There are shows about dancing celebrities on TV these days? I wouldn't know as I'm not a lonely woman.
McGone: I would get Michael J. Fox to say, "Moo," instead. And I almost think Walsh should have one name. Something like "Balzack."
Jenks: You've inspired a second Rider's Block show: Chuck Norris savagely beating John Norris. Every week.
"Cranks McCoy" and his catch phrase: I've had it , I've had it...where's my cane?!
I want to change Walsh's name on the show to Trip Penske.
You could do it like the old 70's shows....
"And Jason Mewes....as Mandingo."
